Thanksgiving is coming up soon, and many families in the U.S. will be celebrating over turkey, potatoes, and corn! (to name a few!) But there are many other common traditions people celebrate. One of the most common is watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade. This is one of the most watched parades in the U.S., known for its big inflatable balloons and elaborate floats! Another tradition is breaking the wishbone for good luck! Usually, after carving the turkey, the Y-shaped bone (the wishbone) gets set aside to dry, then two lucky people will make their wish and pull the bone apart. Whoever gets the bigger piece will have their wish come true! Finally, one of the most traditional things that makes Thanksgiving is having a traditional Thanksgiving meal with your family. Having roast turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, corn, mashed potatoes and gravy, and of course, pumpkin pie are all necessities for this special day. Gobbling (no pun intended) all of this food around the table with friends and family and sharing what you’re thankful for is all a Thanksgiving tradition.
So, what’s your favorite Thanksgiving tradition?
